our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law. for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well. our journey is not complete until no citizen is forced to wait for hours to exercise the right to vote. our journey is not complete until we find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see america as a land of opportunity, until bright young students and engineers are listed in our work force rather than expelled from our country. our journey is not complete until all our children, from the streets of detroit, to the hills of appalachian to newtown know they're cared for and cherished and always safe from harm. >> i should point out we have just been told the obama motorcade is en route to the ball. we anticipate seeing him and the first lady, michelle obama, quite soon at the first of two inaugural balls they'll be stopping at. the balls we have been witnessing earlier. newtown certainly has impacted this president greatly. how much do you think gun con
